Leisure and Hospitality

We have a great deal of experience of advising leisure and hospitality operators across the full range of their legal needs on both contentious and non-contentious matters. That includes advising on all corporate and commercial, property and employment matters that leisure and hospitality operators encounter. A feature of our leisure and hospitality practice has been our team working with restaurant and bar operators to grow their business through site acquisition and development but also underpinning that growth through commercial protection and dispute resolution, where necessary. We work with a variety of leisure and hospitality operators across the full range of their property estate issues, often involving large portfolios, development or refurbishment financing. We have also acted for a number of overseas businesses looking to set up in the UK, advising them on all matters connected to doing business in the UK.
